Spellings

This week’s words to learn are:

defensive

microscope

telescopic

asteroid

Parents: all words are selected from the age-appropriate National Curriculum lists, these are words your child has to know by the end of Year 5.   Please encourage them to practice at home during the week, and carry out an occasional test to prepare them for Friday morning.  The tests are linked to spelling objectives and learning during the week.

Mental Maths

This week the children will be tested on dividing the following numbers by 10, 100 and 1000;

2000, 45000, 691000

i.e.  2000 ÷ 10 = 200

2000 ÷ 100 = 20

2000 ÷ 1000 = 2

On Friday after school, please ask your child their score, we’ll send it home on a slip of paper.
